Re: Reading CD's/DVD's slows down my computer!

I'm pretty sure I have the latest drivers.

I'm using a Gigabyte P35C-DS3R mobo, where can I check for updates to the chipset? thanks in advance mate.

*nevermind I just found it on the Gigabyte website, downloading now and will install shortly*

Nope, the IDE cable is solely for the DVD drive, the DVD drive is set to Master on the back

One other thing, I've checked all the IDE Channels (Primary and Secondary) and they are all set to use DMA and not PIO
